25 mars 2010 · "I recommend nobody have a check card, as they are easily duplicated" Much much rarer (as is the English subjunctive in the first place), and a bit forced even in my example, but certainly possible. In normal indicative speech, "nobody" is a singular 3rd person, so it is "has" expect under special conditions, which do exist.
8 août 2009 · Many many thanks. 2 is not ungrammatical, but it is an unusual thing to say and relies on the meaning of "one" as a singular number. "No one of them" is always singular; "none of them" can be either singular or plural: None of them is known to me. None of them are known to me. No one of them are known to me.
21 sept. 2023 · Nobody but doctors or nurses and those invited by Dr. Lee _____ (allow) to enter the patient’s room. My friend said it should be 'are allowed', but I'm inclined to say 'is allowed' because I think the subject of this sentence is 'nobody', which is singular.

19 sept. 2012 · In Amber's example, the reference is to a particular event in the past - a specific time. I think the present perfect is possible here, but I think we would normally use the simple past to indicate that we are referring to the known past event, rather than to other past events; and we would leave it to the listener to deduce from "Nobody saw" that "Nobody knows".
29 mai 2008 · Français - France. Jul 17, 2009. #8. for Timmy C: "être toujours l'imbécile de quelqu'un" refers to the fact there is always somebody that thinks you're stupid. "personne n'est parfait" or "nul n'est parfait" may refer to any defect, not only stupidity.
13 mai 2013 · Mondays? Aint nobody got time for that. I guess this phrase is supposed to mean: "Does nobody have got time for that?" / Has nobody got time for that? But even so I'm afraid I don't get the joke Could you explain it to me:)
27 oct. 2016 · I disagree with e2efour here - I don't think "don't anybody move" is good English. For me the negative form of "anybody move" is "nobody move". You wouldn't say "Don't somebody open the door", to take another example. Whether or not it is technically grammatically correct, I don't think anyone disputes the original reply to your question that ...
11 juil. 2011 · Under that rule, "Nobody but I" is correct. I think it would be rare to hear someone say "Nobody but I will help you" in actual everyday conversation. In a classroom, on a test or in a paper to be submitted at school I would write "Nobody but I". ("No one" is a little more formal than "nobody", so I think it would be more consistent to write ...
